TASS — Crimea’s ex-prosecutor Poklonskaya takes helm at State Duma’s Commission on MPs’ income


Poklonskaya set to kick some ass.
Crimea’s former prosecutor, Natalya Poklonskaya, now a newly-elected member of the seventh State Duma, has taken the helm of the Duma’s Commission on monitoring the accuracy of information on MPs’ revenues. The newly-elected State Duma approved the relevant directive at its first session on Wednesday.
Speaking with journalists earlier, Poklonskaya vowed that that she would use her experience gained from her job at the prosecutor’s office, if the MPs endorsed her candidacy.She said that in her work, she would "take into consideration the full force of the law."
This is a big deal for two reasons: First, corruption is a huge problem in Russia. Secondly, politicians that address it effectively are going too become hugely popular with Russian voters.

Poklonskaya has a destiny to fulfill. She is young and has plenty of time to become a major player.

Sputnik — Crimean Prosecutor Natalia Poklonskaya May Run for Russian Parliament


Watch this lady. She is a rising star in Russia.
[Natalia] Poklonskaya came to prominence in Crimea and in Russia after handing in her resignation to the Ukrainian General Directorate of Internal Affairs in Kiev in February 2014, citing her inability to accept living "in a country where neo-fascists freely walk the streets." She accepted the proposal of then-recently elected Crimean Prime Minister Sergei Aksyonov to become Prosecutor General of the Republic of Crimea, which several male candidates had previously rejected, fearing for their personal safety. Since then, Poklonskaya has become one of the symbols of the so-called 'Russian Spring' in Crimea, capturing the attention, and the hearts and minds, of Russians and foreigners alike.
Last month, Russian President Vladimir Putin Awarded Poklonskaya the rank of Judicial Counsellor 3rd Class, a rank equivalent to that of Major General, up from her previous rank of Senior Counsellor of Justice.
This article is more of an attempt to draft her than a declaration of her interest in running for political office. But it seems clear that she is destined to become a political figure in the future of Russia.
